Château de Béru Athenais "Les Lavières" Savigny-lès-Beaune Premier Cru '18
“Les Lavières” is made from vines located in the town of Savigny-Lès-Beaune, halfway up the slopes. The predominantly clay-limestone soils are placed on a subsoil made up of lavières. The Pinot noir used for this cuvée comes from a mass selection planted in 1954. Vinification is in whole bunches: after vatting in a tapered wooden vat, alcoholic fermentation takes place under the action of indigenous yeasts. The vinification is without input, aiming for a gentle extraction, thanks to pumping over and light punching down. The total maceration time is 2 to 3 weeks, and aging is for 18 months in Burgundy pièces. Neither filtered nor fined.
